Michael Jackson's influence was erased after the child molestation allegations. They didn't put any of the songs he made for Sonic 3 in the game.
He designed the entire soundtrack, he just never recieved credit for it
>Was MJ's influence the reason how Sonic became so culturally iconic?
'the fuck are you smoking?
MJ made the S3 soundtrack but he didn't like how it sounded, plus SEGA didn't want to associate with him once the controversy started, using some of his base tunes but heavily modifying them.
Sure he liked the games a lot, and if you listen to the S3 soundtrack his shit is still there, but that's about it.
Sonic games hardly sold BECAUSE of him in any way, that's stupid.
>he just never recieved credit for it
He didn't want credit, he hated how it sounded on the chip, he pulled out.
Maybe he could've sued SEGA on still using his base work, but it was probably modified just enough to avoid a lawsuit, or something.
Sonic was the unanimous goty winner in 1991, it became huge because it was THAT good
Sega still commonly sampled him for many of their tracks in future games and even put him in Space Channel 5
They always knew MJ was based an innocent
>plus SEGA didn't want to associate with him once the controversy started
He was in Space Channel 5 ten years aftet the allegations.
Because things got better, then they would get worse, then better, etc.
He was a cameo in one of the Man in Black movies, remember?
Way after the allegations started.
People these days forget that it was constant up and downs, it wasn't just "MJ is now a pedo" and then he stopped working and showing up in things.
MJ never touched a single kid. The entire thing was a ploy by hollyweird Jews to steak the Beatles catalog and devalue Jackson's worth an artist
Of course. It's always the Jews' fault isn't it?
Look, I'm skeptical of the allegations myself, but it wasn't some big conspiracy.
SEGA of America had the ideal marketing in place to compete with Nintendo, and SoA were also the ones that came up with bundling Sonic 1 with the Genesis. SEGA also had a stronger foothold in Europe before the Genesis anyway, what with the Master System being pretty popular over there. MJ being a cultural icon and a SEGAchad might've influenced some people but he wasn't super publicly involved with them. He was uncredited as a composer on Sonic 3, had the Moonwalker game, and appeared in Space Channel 5, that's about it. If he made a bigger deal out of working with SEGA, they honestly might have lived longer as a console manufacturer.
Also MJ was innocent. Fuck pedophiles, he was probably framed by some real ones.
It actually was a big conspiracy. They didn't even cover their tracks very well.
Yep, Michael literally hinted at the fact he suffered from MK Ultra too growing up judging by this picture. His brother also told a story about how Michael would usually be invited to these "meetings" with groups of men as a child & woke up the next morning not remembering anything that happened & feeling sick. Anything awful that could happen to a child, happened to him. He was trying to save others from experiencing what he did
Sonic was culturally iconic long before his involvement with Sonic 3 so I don't even know what this thread's even pretending to be about
That was only for sonic 3 wasn't it?
>BREAKING: President Trump collapses during press conference
Yep, i literally researched one of places that accused him of pedophilia and it was owned by a Jewish man & Federal Investment Banker
sonic became "iconic" because it is heroin for autists
only sonic 3 and only like a handful of the songs were actually MJ. His team did a decent amount of work on it too but still. I remember seeing a chart showing who all did what a while back but I don't have it on me. Either way he had nothing to do with &Knuckles and most if not all his and the team's work was removed from S3K when you locked it on.
Reminds me of Larry Silverstein conspiracy theories.
I feel like people always find ways to blame the Jews.
Yes, it's amazing how often jews are involved in things like this
If you want (((my))) explanation as to why this might be the case, it's because Jews are disproportionately represented in high-ranking positions in the entertainment industry and white-collar jobs. Since people in power tend to take advantage of it, naturally you hear a lot about people like Bernie Madoff and Jeffrey Epstein who do fucked-up stuff. But at the same time, there's plenty of non-Jews in these positions who commit crimes.
It's really more of a power thing than a racial thing.

MASK OF LIFE, FEELIN' INSANE.
It was the Jews, but mostly it was due to the fact the owned the Sonic Music catalog, he bought it in 1985. In 1986 they started accusing him of all kinds of horrible things, and turned the world against him because he refused to resell it back to them. Everything they did was just in effort to pressure him into selling the album back to them. However Michael knew he was innocent and continued to fight no matter what, so they had to kill him and take it by force
PVM/BVM. The way it was meant to be played.
Conrad Murray isn't Jewish.
>Conrad Murray
Blacks are easily bought and he was. A Jew was the one who did come up with the molestation accusations. "Jew me sue me everybody do me. Kick me KIKE me, don't you black or white me"
"The idea that these lyrics could be deemed objectionable is extremely hurtful to me, and misleading. The song in fact is about the pain of prejudice and hate and is a way to draw attention to social and political problems. I am the voice of the accused and the attacked. I am the voice of everyone. I am the skinhead, I am the Jew, I am the black man, I am the white man. I am not the one who was attacking. It is about the injustices to young people and how the system can wrongfully accuse them. I am angry and outraged that I could be so misinterpreted."

Sonic was the first 2D platform game where you control a fast character. This was revolutionary and loved at the time, on the year 1991. I personally love Sonic because he is radical and fast and egocentric attitude.
Also, it's worth mentioning that Michael Jackson was black.
>literally any and every MJ discussion derails into Zig Forums shit
can we just agree that Dangerous was his best album at least
Only on the outside.
No.
Sega just hardcore marketed the shit out of Sonic in the early 90s with several cartoons, comics, and lots of merchandising/commercial tie-ins. Sega's aggressive console warring and positioning Sonic as the "cool anti-Mario" helped solidify Sega as a prominent video game company in the 90s and made Sonic a cultural icon.
But Michael Jackson made Thriller...
I prefer Thriller.
Holy freaking crap Lois, did Michael Jackson also make The Simpsons popular?
